Father receiving pension not taking any responsibility of mother
03-Apr-2024 (In Family Law)
My father(73) is ex govt employee and receives pension each month. Of late he is adamant on not taking any responsibility of my mother(71). Her medicines, basic requirements, or anything relevant is being taken care by me. My father doesn't give a single rupee to my mother from his pension and completely shifts the balance to me saying I need to do everything and he has no responsibility in giving any money or spending anything for my mother's sake. I am working. Is there a legal remedy?

yes your mother has to file a petition under section 125 of criminal procedure code in family court, the court will definitely pass order for maintenance and your mother will receive her maintenance.
